WelshLamb Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Assuming I get my theory and hazard perception done before hand, can I do all my 'practical' training in one week? I'm looking to do direct access, with cbt beforehand. Thanks in advance PW bikers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houlsby Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) Yeh. New test is two part tho.. So if you fluff the first test you've gotta still pay the second if you do it over the week.. I did mine over two weeks of afternoons, I failed the first test for clipping a cone. Edit.. Just realised how long it is since I did my test.. It's not that 'new' anymore! Edited January 25, 2013 by houlsby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshLamb Posted January 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 The awkward part is that I'm never at home! have already been away for a month so it looks like a week or two off will be needed! :( (hate time off!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marine1980 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I did my direct death course over 3 days but its down to the individual! I now help run CBT's to help a mate out and plus I love riding. I'm guessing that your over 24 as the rules on direct death courses have just changed?

Chris Bb Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm well above 30 (that's an understatement) and have held a full driving licence since well before the turn of the century. Currently, I believe, I can drive a moped without L plates. What other bikes could I drive and what tests would be necessary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard V Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Jeez When I did mine only 5 years ago this summer there was only really the restricted A2 test (under 33bhp) age 17+ and DAS age 21+ and none of this 2 part test ****, the EU strikes again I did the A2 only because the EU was changing the test and still rode around on a 125 for over 2 years (the 33bhp restriction only lasted for 2 years, it probably lasts for a millenium now :wacko: ), about 3 months after the restriction I got a 500 no restriction needed I'm well above 30 (that's an understatement) and have held a full driving licence since well before the turn of the century. Currently, I believe, I can drive a moped without L plates. What other bikes could I drive and what tests would be necessary? I believe you need to do a CBT and then you can ride 125cc with L plates, after that I would consult a expert solicitor in traffic laws to find out which test does what.
